The smart and connected devices they show the potential for use because, in general, they allow their management from mobile phones. This applies especially in the case of smart speakers, for example: without using Google Assistant or Alexa, we can connect the phone again send music, audios and podcasts. Not only the speaker, but also those nearby: guest mode It is a really useful activity. Or rather it was.
A few days ago Google Home users and Nest smart speakers noticed the disappearance: Guest mode is no longer available between options
Only guest mode on Chromecast
Getting to a friend's house again, without connecting to your WiFi, sending a song to the speakers is something that can't be done: Guest mode has disappeared from the Google Home app
Google did not explain why it excluded visitor access: only Chromecast compatibility with that mode is shown in the Help Center, probably because it's easier to access it offline since The TV screen can be seen by access code. Because of this, you may be sharing content on Chromecasts and devices with Chromecast included (TVs with Android TV and compatible, for example), but do not send audio to Google Home, Nest or Google's wireless service.
Although details about guest mode are off the Google Help Center, they can still be accessed from the browser cache. This means that Google has eliminated the bet option and that it is not a mistake. Pity ever since, when we switched off guest mode on connected speakers, the possibilities for sharing music without access to home WiFi were lost, a very useful feature.
